Project Overview - Continued:

The second objective of the UEET Project is to address the potential of climate impact on log-term aviation growth by providing critical propulsion technologies to reduce overall fuel burn by 15 percent for large subsonic transport and by 8 percent for high-speed and/or small subsonic aircraft, based on 1997 production capabilities, resulting in a dramatic increase in performance and efficiency and comparable reductions of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
